Finding Eve : Discover Your True Identity As A Daughter Of God
$14.99Find your way to the heart of God, where you will discover all you need to fulfill His purposes for your life.In Genesis 3 the serpent came to Eve and within moments caused her to think she was lacking something. When she looked at the forbidden tree, she saw that it was pleasant to the eyes, good for food, and had the power to make one wise. Although she already possessed beauty, provision, and an intimate relationship with God, she thought she needed more. So she ate the fruit-and lost the comfort and security of the garden because she doubted God. Many women today are falling into the same trap. We allow Satan to convince us we aren’t enough, when in fact we are already complete in Christ.Finding Eve follows Eve’s journey to find her way back to God’s heart and to discover her true identity as a daughter of God. This book is designed to encourage women who may be facing disappointment, the fallout from bad choices, or the pain of unfilled dreams. It will offer hope and equip them to be all they were intended to be in the kingdom of God.

$15.99Cordelia Lewis watched Bernard Howard, the love of her young life, go off to fight for our country in WWII. And she has spent the last three years creating the Pine Cone quilt that will grace their marriage bed when he comes home.

Her image of their “happy-ever-after” grows proportionally as the quilt expands.
But is the man that returns from the war, the same man that she remembered? Are the dark shades of color that she had to use for the outside edges of the beloved quilt prophetic of her life to come? Can love and faith overcome all?

Querida Amiga – (Spanish)
$14.99Querida amiga nos ensea como dos mujeres comunes descubrieron los milagros de la esperanza, el amor y la amistad.
Que le dices a una amiga a la que le quedan pocos meses de vida? El dia en que Deb dio a conocer que tenia un cancer de pulmon inoperable, la escritora Margaret Terry acepto enviarle unas palabras motivadoras y hacer algo que nunca habia hecho: creer en los milagros. Margaret busco detenidamente en el pozo de su propia vida una motivacion con la que Deb pudiera identificarse. Le escribio sobre cosas que podrian haber compartido si tuvieran mas tiempo e historias secretas de vulnerabilidad y perdida, de amor y perdon.
Querida amiga muestra el poder de una buena historia contada con un corazon abierto y fiel. Los lectores se identificaran con sus amores y perdidas, sus esperanzas y sueos, y volveran a sentir un vinculo con la maravilla de los milagros cotidianos.
Querida amiga es una celebracion a la vida aun cuando todo este en contra.
Querida amiga shows how two ordinary women found the miracles of hope, love, and friendship.
What do you say to a friend who has only a few months to live? The day Deb announced she had inoperable lung cancer, author Margaret Terry agreed to send her encouraging words and do something she had never done before-believe in a miracle. Margaret looked deep into the well of her own life to find encouragement Deb could relate to. She wrote Deb things they might have shared if they had more time, secret stories of vulnerability and loss, of love and forgiveness.
Querida amiga showcases the power of a good story told with an open and faithful heart. Readers will feel connected with their loves and losses, their hopes and dreams, and reconnect with the wonder of everyday miracles. They will laugh and they will weep when a father and daughter reconnect after a twenty-year silence. They will cheer when forgiveness is redefined in the brokenhearted aftermath of divorce. They will sense on every page that hope and strength are within their grasp.
Most of all, after readers close this book, they will remember those ordinary moments that make life extraordinary, the ones we all share when we open our hearts to finding love and joy in unexpected places. And, they will remember that if we look really hard, we can find miracles.
Querida amiga is a celebration of life even when the odds are stacked against it.

Leading And Loving It
$28.55A guidebook for women in ministry on how to embrace their God-given role and to love it the way God intended from the founders of the Leading and Loving It organization.
Being a woman in ministry, whether you are partnering with your husband in his calling or serving in your own leadership role, is challenging. While serving as mentors, counselors, advisors, and even cheerleaders, women carry numerous responsibilities. Lori Wilhite and Brandi Wilson know about this first-hand as the wives of two well-known pastors in America.
Everyone has an image in their mind of what they think a pastor’s wife should be. The trouble with this picture is that it has never been and never will be accurate. Ministry wives and female ministry leaders face the same real-life struggles as their church members, but have the added stress of sharing in everyone’s burdens as well. They are held to impossible standards by those they serve, and the more this ideal of women in leadership is expected, the more we turn up the intensity in the pressure cooker that is life in ministry.
In LEADING AND LOVING IT, Lori Wilhite and Brandi Wilson offer a support system to help women make connections to get the encouragement that sustains them and become equipped for the ministry God has called them to pursue. They give readers tools for understanding that external pressures and expectations are only important if they fall in line with what God intends for your life and ministry and they give answers for how to deal with criticism, isolation, finding your personal calling, and what happens when you reach a place of burn-out, and more.

Planted : A Story Of Creation Calling And Community
$24.00Wipf and Stock Publishers
Planted is not a “how to” book, but a “how so” book in which the reader is invited to travel with Leah Kostamo on the wild ride of salmon saving, stranger welcoming, and God worshiping as she and her husband help establish the first Christian environmental center in Canada. Avoiding simplistic prescriptions or cliched platitudes, Leah wrestles with issues of poverty, justice, and the environment through the narrative of her own life experience. The lived-theology and humility of voice conveyed in these pages draws readers to new and creative ways to honor the Creator as they are inspired to care for creation. “Grace, beauty, humor, and truth-telling combine in Leah Kostamo’s story of the growth of A Rocha, a grassroots organization in which she and her husband Markku have been world-changers for good. This is a fascinating narrative in which committed environmentalists respond to God’s call to renew our planet and our souls.” –Luci Shaw, author of The Crime of Living Cautiously: Hearing God’s Call to Adventure “Planted is one of the most captivating and inspiring books I have read in a long time. It offers rich and intimate glimpses into what sacrificial care for all God’s creation can look like in the lives of ordinary Christians. Surely God desires for this to become part of our story as well.” –Ben Lowe, activist and author of Green Revolution: Coming Together to Care for Creation “Leah Kostamo’s elegant memoir shares the story of A Rocha, an organization that lives out the principles of Christian stewardship and community. With humility, grace, and candor, Leah takes her readers along the creation-care journey, sharing how many small acts can and do make a difference.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

*encourage, guide, and correct them, and prompt them to speak or act appropriately
*help them identify deep motives and penetrate to the root of personal struggles
*help them discern in prayer what is best in a situationWhen believers build their lives upon reliance on the Spirit, they can live confidently in life’s stressful situations and relationships, knowing they have a Friend who is always there to help.

To be fully human is to think. The apostle Paul calls us to “take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Cor 10:5). But James Emery White fears that Western Christians are failing in this task. Because we have not developed good intellectual habits, our minds instead have been captured by our culture. A Mind for God is written to help us break free from this cultural captivity through the spiritual and intellectual disciplines of reading, study and reflection. This inspirational and practical “rule for the mind” encourages and enables us to develop our minds for God.

Miracle Work : A Down To Earth Guide To Supernatural Ministries
$23.9918 Chapters
Additional Info
We are a supernatural people. Made in the image of God and called to follow a risen Lord through the world God made-we’re anything but normal. Given all that, it should not be surprising to us when miraculous things happen in our midst. Still, many of us are intimidated at the thought of it, and we stop short of trying so we won’t disappoint God with our lack of faith, or-if we’re being honest-so we won’t be disappointed when God fails to deliver. In Miracle Work Jordan Seng tells remarkable stories of physical healings and prophetic messages. He reflects on the possibility and limitations of a contemporary ministry that believes in the power of God, and helps us train and prepare ourselves for when God works through us in the lives of others. Read Miracle Work for a better understanding of what it means to be agents of grace, healing and even miracles in a world that desperately needs the good news of Gods loving, healing touch.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Influencia Espiritual – (Spanish)
$14.99‘Spiritual influence… is prompted by the Spirit of God whose work it is to reform the human spirit, bringing people back to the shape God designed in the first place. This happens by the inflow—the in-fluence—of the Spirit. And it happens through a thousand hidden, imperceptible steps.’ In this fresh look at leadership, Mel Lawrenz argues that we must look beneath the surface—at the core spiritual dynamics of life—to better understand how leaders can have an enduring influence in the lives of individuals and over the organizations they lead. Drawing from over twenty years of experience in pastoral ministry, Lawrenz writes for Christians who lead in any position of influence, with a special focus on young leaders. This book provides a new baseline for 21st century Christian leadership, and includes the keys to addressing issues like:
* building integrity
* seizing opportunities
* exploring new horizons
* speaking into crises
* receiving power
* accepting authority
* promoting truth
* managing expectations

Conquista El Corazon De Dios – (Spanish)
$14.99Job did something special to capture God’s heart. Job 1:8 says: Then the Lord said to Satan, ‘Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.
God has emotions. He feels pain, but he also feels pleasure, and we have been given the privilege of being able to touch his heart. But the best of all is that it was he who took the initiative of seeking us and conquering our hearts. Jeremiah said: You deceived me, Lord, and I was deceived; you overpowered me and prevailed. I am ridiculed all day long; everyone mocks me. (Jeremiah 20:7)
From the time that the author learned that he could capture the heart of God and enjoy his favor, this became the all-consuming purpose of his life. But he wants God’s heart not only for himself alone, but also for his house, his church and his nation.
David was another man who captured the heart of God and because of David, God made Mount Zion his dwelling place. Psalm 132:13-14 says: For the Lord has chosen Zion, he has desired it for his dwelling, saying, This is my resting place for ever and ever; here I will sit enthroned, for I have desired it.
The author has the goal of sharing everything he has learned in his spiritual journey, trying to capture the heart of God and making of his life and of his church a place where God will want to remain and dwell. The Scriptures tell us that whenever believers are gathered together for worship, God is in the midst of them; however, in his opinion that does not always happen because he wants to, but because he has been summoned. He is present because he himself said: For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them (Matthew 18:20). But there are times when God really desires to be in our midst. These are moments that give him pleasure; he feels loved, desired … This is the message that the author wants to communicate in order to bless others: How can we capture the heart of God?
His answer is based on the biblical principle that we were created for God, indicating that it is God who takes the initiative in the conquest, and this is the place of his presence, what to do when God is not present, what are the reasons why his presence has been taken away, the glory that belongs only to him, the sin of man and the absence of God, the lack of respect in his presence and the restoration of the presence of the Thrice Holy One. He explains which road leads to God, what happen

Gentle Giant Of Dynamite Hill
$14.99These are the firsthand accounts of sisters Helen and Barbara Shores growing up with their father, Arthur Shores, a prominent Civil Rights attorney, during the 60s in the Jim Crow south Birmingham district—a frequent target of the Ku Klux Klan. Between 1948 and 1963, some 50 unsolved Klan bombings happened in Smithfield where the Shores family lived, earning their neighborhood the nickname ‘Dynamite Hill.’
Due to his work, Shores’ daughter, Barbara, barely survived a kidnapping attempt. Twice, in 1963, Klan members bombed their home, sending Theodora to the hospital with a brain concussion and killing Tasso, the family’s cocker spaniel. The family narrowly escaped a third bombing attempt on their home in the spring of 1965.
The Gentle Giant of Dynamite Hill is an incredible story of a family’s unfair suffering, but also of the Shores’ overcoming. This family’s sacrificial commitment, courage, determination, and triumph inspire us today through this story and the selfless service, work, and lives of Helen Shores Lee and Barbara Sylvia Shores.

Life Observed : A Spiritual Biography Of C S Lewis (Reprinted)
$27.05C. S. Lewis is one of the most influential Christian writers of our time. The Chronicles of Narnia has sold more than 100 million copies worldwide and all Lewis’s works are estimated to sell 6 million copies annually. At the fiftieth anniversary of his death, Lewis expert Devin Brown brings the beloved author’s story to life in a fresh, accessible, and moving biography through focusing on Lewis’s spiritual journey.
Although it was clear from the start that Lewis would be a writer, it was not always clear he would become a Christian. Drawing on Lewis’s autobiographical works, works by those who knew him personally, and his apologetic and fictional writing, this book tells the inspiring story of Lewis’s journey from cynical atheist to joyous Christian and challenges readers to follow their own calling. The book allows Lewis to tell his own life story in a uniquely powerful manner while shedding light on his best-known works.

How The SEC Became Goliath
$17.99How the SEC Became Goliath covers the Southeastern Conference and how the league became dominant, winning seven straight national championships.
Size matters. That’s why the SEC is Goliath, because the Southeastern Conference, top to bottom, has better coaches, better stadiums, better bank accounts, and better weather, but the difference maker is the bigger and better players.
The SEC has walked off with the big crystal prize in college football for seven straight years and will not give it back. The talk of “big boy football” grinds on the Buckeyes, Sooners, Longhorns, and Ducks. All they can come back with is “Wait until next year.” Then next year comes and the SEC tribe is chanting in the closing minutes of the National Championship Game, “SEC, SEC, SEC!”
The national championship trophy has been in the South for so long it has sunburn. That is why college football is thick with the acrimony: SEC vs. Everyone Else. The dominance of the SEC has a lot more to do with the South’s culture than just the rock-’em, sock-’em of football played one day a week. The South lost the Civil War, and sociologists will tell you that there is still a regional angst, an “us against them” mentality, a spirit of “those damn Yankees.” It is not just about championships. The SEC is about culture and competitiveness. . . . It is about players.

Unwrapping Wonder : Finding Hope In The Gift Of Nature
$21.16Heeding technology’s cry to get connected can result in overloaded circuits of the mind. Frenetic connections cause frazzled lives. Unwrapping Wonder: Finding Hope in the Gift of Nature will restore the reader’s soul as they step outside to cultivate a connection with creation and, in the process, deepen their relationship with the Creator.
This delightful mix of natural history, human story and God’s glory found in everyday nature is based on Job’s words: But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you … or let the fish of the sea inform you. Each chapter focuses on one natural object such as the bee, the barnacle, the tiniest seed.
By peering within the ordinary, we can learn to see details which reveal extraordinary wonder. As we unwrap the gift, we discover more of nature, God, and ourselves, one wonder at a time.
Unwrapping Wonder is for active men and women and families who enjoy the outdoors or reading about nature, and for those needing hope in a hectic world. Each chapter offers:
The Wonder Introduced: through anecdote, natural history, or life story.
The Wonder Unwrapped: zooming in to see hidden details, and explained in everyday terms.
The Wonder Applied: Practical, spiritual lessons for daily living.
Promise of Hope: Relevant Scripture to inspire hope.
Wondercise: A hands-on nature activity designed to awaken heart, mind, and soul to the wonder of creation and give praise to the Creator.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Notes From The Tilt A Whirl
$19.98What is this World? What kind of place is it?
“The round kind. The spinning kind. The moist kind. The inhabited kind. The kind with flamingos (real and artificial). The kind where water in the sky turns into beautifully symmetrical crystal flakes sculpted by artists unable to stop themselves (in both design and quantity). The kind of place with tiny, powerfully jawed mites assigned to the carpets to eat my dead skin as it flakes off . . . The kind with people who kill and people who love and people who do both . . .
This world is beautiful but badly broken.
“I love it as it is, because it is a story, and it isn’t stuck in one place. It is full of conflict and darkness like every good story, a world of surprises and questions to explore. And there’s someone behind it; there are uncomfortable answers to the hows and whys and whats. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Through Him were all things made . . .
Welcome to His poem. His play. His novel. Let the pages flick your thumbs.”

Spiritual Formation In Emerging Adulthood (Reprinted)
$35.29The shift from adolescence to adulthood, a recently identified stage of life called “emerging adulthood,” covers an increasing span of years in today’s culture (roughly ages 18-30) due to later marriages and extended education. During this prolonged stage of exploration and self-definition, many young adults drift away from the church.
Here two authors–both veteran teachers who are experienced in young adult and campus ministry–address this new and urgent field of study, offering a Christian perspective on what it means to be spiritually formed into adulthood. They provide a “practical theology” for emerging adult ministry and offer insight into the key developmental issues of this stage of life, including identity, intimacy and sexuality, morality, church involvement, spiritual formation, vocation, and mentoring. The book bridges the gap between academic and popular literature on emerging adulthood and offers concrete ways to facilitate spiritual formation among emerging adults.

Israels Poetry Of Resistance
$53.33Noting that Israel’s earliest responses to earth-shaking changes were cast in the powerfully expressive language of poetry, Hugh R. Page Jr. argues that the careful collection and preservation of these traditions-now found in every part of the Hebrew Bible-was an act of resistance, a communal no to the forces of despair and a yes to the creative power of the Spirit.
Further, Page argues, the power of these poems to craft and shape a future for a people who had suffered acute displacement and marginalization offers a rich spiritual repertoire for Africana peoples today, and for all who find themselves perennially outside the social or political mainstream. Here Page offers fresh translations and brief commentary on the Bible’s fifteen earliest poems, and explores the power and relevance of these poems, and the ancient mythic themes behind them, for contemporary life at the margins.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Not A Fan Student Edition
$12.99If someone asked, ‘Are you a fan of Jesus?’, how would you answer? You attend every movie featuring a certain actor, you know the stats of your sports hero, and you can recite lyrics from your favorite songs. In short, you’re a huge fan. But are you treating Jesus the same as the other people you admire? The truth is Jesus wants more than the church attendance, occasional prayer, and the ability to recite Scripture—the fan response. He’s looking for people who are actually willing to sacrifice in order to follow him. In this student edition of Not a Fan, Kyle Idleman uses humor, personal stories, and biblical truth as he challenges you to look at what it means to call yourself a Christian and follow the radical call Jesus presents. So, will you be a fan, or a follower?

5. Kutakaswa And Pwodhruok
6. Love Is
7. Glorious Freedom
8. Sanctification As Transformation
9. Input Throughput And OutputAdditional Info
Understanding holiness is important.
Living it out is even better.When people hear competing–even contradicting–descriptions of holiness they sometimes become doubtful it can be a reality in their own lives. Like most divine things, holiness is difficult to describe and capture in one complete way.
This work embraces the richness of holiness by putting side-by-side various understandings of holiness and sanctification from a diverse group of Nazarene pastors, leaders, and scholars. These writers demonstrate the variety of ways this work of God is understood and lived out. The contributors are aged twenty-something to eighty-something and are a mixture of amateurs and experts in the field of theology.
Holiness is a dynamic reality that exists in tensions such as instant and process, now and later, and individual and social. One thing is certain, however: holiness is a gift from and a work of God that He originates, initiates, and sustains in the life of the believer.

Thomas Aquinas And Karl Barth
$39.99PRINT ON DEMAND TITLE
Compares and contrasts two of the church’s greatest theologiansThomas Aquinas and Karl Barth are often taken to be two of the greatest theologians in the Christian tradition. This book undertakes a systematic comparison of them through the lens of five key topics: (1) the being of God, (2) Trinity, (3) Christology, (4) grace and justification, and (5) covenant and law. Under each of these headings, a Catholic portrait of Aquinas is presented in comparison with a Protestant portrait of Barth, with the theological places of convergence and contrast highlighted.
This volume combines a deep commitment to systematic theology with an equally profound commitment to mutual engagement. Understood rightly and well, Aquinas and Barth contribute powerfully to the future of theology and to an ecumenism that takes doctrinal confession seriously while at the same time seeking unity among Christians.

$37.95“The United States of America is not in the Bible.” So said a noted pastor, during a national interview. Is this true? If so, the implications are staggering. America would be a nation declining into oblivion, or she might be Babylon. Either way, she would be hated by God, and Christian believers should get out while they can.
However, what if the United States of America is in the Bible? Welcome to the discovery! Steven Grant takes you on an exciting ride through the Bible and history, one that reads like an adventure novel. Questions addressed in the book include:
Is America merely lucky?
Does God have His hand in America’s history?
What will happen to America?
How does America fit into God’s plan?You may not think of America the same way after reading this book. For Christians, and for patriots who have loved America but didn’t know why, this is a book for you. America in the Bible. Heaven’s kingdom. It’s time for the truth. And it’s time you knew.

Angeles – (Spanish)
$14.99Una fascinante e inspiradora mirada a la funcion de los angeles en la vida de las personas: como nos guian hacia y a traves de la experiencia salvadora de Cristo.
Y si el cielo estuviera mas cerca de lo que pensamos? Y si sus fronteras se entrecruzaran con las nuestras? Y si los angeles entraran y salieran de nuestro poroso presente, este que nos parece tan real y solido?
Todo es cierto; la realidad puede parecernos oscura en este momento, pero para los primeros cristianos era resplandeciente. A traves de sus escritos, sermones, cantos y arte, los creyentes de la antiguedad confesaban una poderosa y vivida creencia de que los angeles nos ayudan a perseverar en nuestro trayecto hacia Dios.
Angeles se remonta a los primeros cristianos y presenta a los lectores modernos una perspectiva de los angeles a traves de los ojos y experiencias de aquellos: como entendieron los dominios angelicos, la guia y proteccion de los angeles y las luchas contra el espiritu maligno y sus demonios. Ya sea en la prueba o en la tentacion, en la alabanza o en la oracion, los angeles estan presentes, listos para ayudarnos y reconfortarnos, guiarnos y corregirnos, caminar con nosotros hasta el borde de la muerte y mas alla, acompaandonos hasta que estemos en los brazos de Cristo.
Explores the relationship between people and angels, through the eyes of the early church.
Heaven is closer than we realize. Its boundaries overlap our own, and angels move in and out of our porous present, this moment that seems to us so solid and concrete. If that reality seems dim to us now, it beamed for the early Christians. Through their writings, sermons, songs, and art, the ancient faithful confessed a powerful and vivid belief that angels help carry us on our journey to God.
Rooted in the Scripture and following this ancient understanding, Angeles reveals:
*the role that angels play in the lives of people and in God’s plan of salvation
*the different ranks and functions of angels
*how Satan and his demons fell from grace and plagued humans
*the functions of guardian angels and how God assigns them to fit our personal needs
*how guardian angels help us resist evil, temptation, and the devil
*the way angels join with us in our prayers, even adding their own to ours
*the service angels provide in worshipFeaturing examples of angels in ancient icons and frescoes and supported by extensive research on the early church and its pastors, poets, theologians, and artist

Earths Earliest Ages
$16.95Defender Publishing
As far back as the beginning of time and within every major culture of the ancient world, the astonishingly consistent story is told of gods who descended from heaven and materialized in bodies of flesh. From Rome to Greece and before that, to Egypt, Persia, Assyria, Babylonia, and Sumer the earliest records of civilization tell of the era when powerful beings known to the Hebrews as Watchers and in the book of Genesis as the b’nai ha Elohim (‘sons of God’) mingled themselves with humans, giving birth to part-celestial, part-terrestrial hybrids known as ‘Nephilim.’ When English theologian George Hawkins Pember, in his 1876 masterpiece, Earth’s Earliest Ages, analyzed the prophecy of Jesus Christ in Matthew 24 that says the end times would be a repeat of ‘the days of Noah,’ he concluded the final and most fearful sign heralding the Lord’s Second Coming would be the return of the ‘Nephilim, the appearance upon earth of beings from the Principality of the Air, and their unlawful intercourse with the human race.’ Jesus Himself, in answering His disciples concerning the signs of His coming and of the end of the world, verified it would be ‘as the days of [Noah] were’ (Matthew 24:37). The implication is, just as it was before the Flood when the spirits of Nephilim were powerful upon earth (Genesis 6:4), mankind would experience an end-times renaissance of the influence of these entities.

This Beautiful Mess (Revised)
$17.00When Jesus was on earth, He painted a radical vision for His followers of an unseen reality. He called it “the kingdom of God.” Even here, Jesus said-in the harshness and mess of earth-His kingdom is the way things really are.
His announcement was nothing less than revolutionary, yet His followers were not quick to pick up on it. They longed for another world-a world without injustice or oppression or poverty. But Jesus said that His kingdom was already happening all around them, through them, and in them.
This Beautiful Mess explores what happens when we view our lives through the lens of God’s kingdom. We see the beauty of Jesus’ reign breaking into the mess of our broken world. We see treasure hidden all around us. We begin to grasp our exciting part in bringing about personal and social transformation for His glory.

Between A Rock And A Hard Place
$120.00Public theology is an increasingly important area of theological discourse with strong global networks of institutions and academics involved in it. Elaine Graham is one of the UKs leading theologians and an established SCM author. In this book, Elaine Graham argues that Western society is entering an unprecedented political and cultural era, in which many of the assumptions of classic sociological theory and of mainstream public theology are being overturned. Whilst many of the features of the trajectory of religious decline, typical of Western modernity, are still apparent, there are compelling and vibrant signs of religious revival, not least in public life and politics – local, national and global. This requires a revision of the classic secularization thesis, as well as much Western liberal political theory, which set out separate or at least demarcated terms of engagement between religion and the public domain.
Elaine Graham examines claims that Western societies are moving from secular to post-secular conditions and traces the contours of the post-secular: the revival of faith-based engagement in public sphere alongside the continuing u perhaps intensifying u questioning of the legi 1/4timacy of religion in public life. She argues that public theology must rethink its theological and strategic priorities in order to be convincing in this new post-secular world and makes the case for the renewed prospects for public theology as a form of Christian apologetics, drawing from Biblical, classical and contemporary sources.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Born To Be Free
$16.99Many longtime believers have never experienced the freedom and transformation promised and seen on the pages of the New Testament. Many are stuck in pain and brokenness. More often than not, the church sends its hurting to the world for answers rather than to Christ, our healer and deliverer. Yet Scripture tells us that the real battles of life have roots and solutions in the spiritual realm rather than in the natural. “Born to Be Free” was birthed in the laboratory of helping hundreds of hurting Christians take hold of the promises of Christ for their life while experiencing the power of the risen Lord in doing so. Many books about healing and freedom develop only one aspect of what is needed and offered by Christ. “Born to Be Free” walks believers through a storehouse of truth and practices that ordinary believers can activate to move into the healing and freedom Christ purchased for them.

Change To Chains Volume 1
$30.00What is going on in the world? Is it politics as usual or is there a bigger picture? How did past civilizations rise and fall? Can the past give us an insight into the future?
Bill Federer’s fascinating new book, Change to Chains-the 6000 year Quest for Control, gives an insight.
In the nearly 6,000 years of recorded human history, power, like gravity, seems to inevitably concentrate into the hands of one individual, sometimes called pharoah, caesar, czar, kaiser, king, caliph, emperor, monarch, sultan, president or communist dictator.
No matter what the autocratic leader’s particular title is, the default setting for human government throughout history has been monarchy.
How rare is America’s experiment with a republic?
On the spectrum of human government, one side is total government with power concentrated in the hands of a totalitarian dictator, and the other side is no government – anarchy.
Find out as world history comes alive from a whole new perspective in Change to Chains: the 6000 year quest for control – Vol. I, Rise of the Republic.

Why Naked Women Look So Good
$12.95“The magnetism a man feels when he sees a woman’s body, that sensual urge, the surge of adrenaline, dopamine, and endorphins, isn’t only given for a man’s gratification, but to be channeled by a man to love his wife. In this ground-breaking book, Bill Perkins identifies eight reasons why men are attracted to a woman’s beauty. But he goes much further. Each answer to the question, why do naked women look so good, also reveals a woman’s fundamental need and helps a man know how to meet that need. By identifying eight vital needs of a woman, and showing a husband how to meet them, Perkins provides guidance to help a man become irresistible to his wife and for living more creatively and sensitively. Chapters are organized into three parts for easy reference. The first part provides one reason why naked women look so good. The second part identifies what need this reveals in a man’s wife. And in the third part, simple steps are provided to help a man love his wife in a way that strengthens her self-image, builds her confidence and allows her to more freely give herself to her husband-both emotionally and sexually.”

He takes a fresh look at what lordship is all about, tracing its meaning through Christian creeds, confessions, and statements of faith, turning to the Bible for deeper insights, and finally offering practical ways to make Jesus lordship a reality in every part of our everyday lives.
